2.6 Hazing Prevention Regulation
The Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) strives to exceed the changing expectations of our
many communities for effective, innovative, student-centered, flexible and lifelong educational opportunities. Our
employees are committed to respecting diversity, continuous quality improvement and the efficient use of
resources. We are a learning organization guided by our shared values of: education, students, employees,
excellence, diversity, honesty and integrity, freedom, fairness, responsibility and public trust.
Central to the vitality and dignity of our community of learners is an environment that produces broadly educated
responsible citizens, who are prepared to serve and lead in a free society. Academic instruction, co-curricular
activities and community involvement come together to meet this goal. All members of the MCCCD community,
through the best of their abilities, must be provided the opportunity to contribute in a safe, orderly, civil and
positive learning environment. One factor that inhibits the achievement of the above stated purpose is the
practice of hazing.
